Sweeping away evil spirits by "Tiandesao"(universe sweeper)
The traditional eastern handmade brooms are traditional palm tree brooms, pampas grass brooms, and bamboo brooms, which are believed to have the functions of warding off evil spirits and clearing away bad luck. Taoism recognizes that the traditional broom has magical effects, and has the function of chasing evil and avoiding evil. The taboo of Tiandesao is to "buy doubles but not singles". "Tiandesao" cannot buy single piece.
Tiandesao exorcism method:
1. Put "coarse salt" or "rock salt" into a small container, then pour half of raw cold water and half of hot boiled water, stir well to prepare yin-yang water (exorcism water).
2. If it is to remove evil spirits in the house, before using the Tiandesau to spell, you must remind the ancestor spirits and house Gods to get out of the way. The Tiandesau is harmful to them.
3. Ware Yama amulet and hold the Tiandesau, dip the end of the Tiandesau with yin-Yang water, sprinkle the yin-yang water in the room, sweep outward gradually from the innermost corner of the house, and sweep out spirits away outside the door.
4. If it is to clear the evil spirits stuck in the body of the victim, use the end of Tiandesau to dip the yin-yang water, and sprinkle it on the front, back, up and down of the victim's body. (This method has been proved to be effective by people who can see the spirits)
